Rejoice fellow Nintendo DS owners this Christmas we are getting a treat from Square-Enix!  Chrono Trigger returns this holiday season arguably one of the best RPG's of all time is getting the remake treatment on the little system that could.  I had the original Chrono Trigger for the Super Nintendo and I still have the still awesome yet terribly flawed PSX version of the game.  This is one remake Brian and I have been clamoring for for a long time.  Since Square-Enix is in the remake mood, maybe the idea of a FF7 remake is not to terribly far off the mark.  Especially after that impressive tech demo two years back.

In EOTW related news Brian is hard at work getting the book completed.  This is a major accomplishment for both of us, but I would really like to thank Brian for all the hard work that he puts into the comic.  Without him EOTW would not be possible.  Thank you Brian.

Well I'm finally getting some stuff done with the book we'll be coming out with soon. You wouldn't believe what a pain it is to get something like that rolling. Publishing costs are just enormous! But I feel confident that I will get just the right number printed.

In other news I'm not sure if we're gonna be seeing August 9th art show come to fruition. I really hope we can cause I'd like to sell some copies of the book there but if it doesn't there is another show in October. I'll keep you guys posted.

There is an interesting article over at ign.com confirming the existence of Mega Man 9.  In my excitement I followed the link provided on the website to view some scans captured from next months Nintendo Power.  Mega Man has gone back to his roots...his 8 bit Nintendo roots.  Here we are in 2008 and Capcom is going to give us Mega Man 9 via WiiWare in 8 bit glory.  I wonder if it will have 8 bit sound to boot?  I am one for nostalgia, but I am also one who realizes when one of gamings beloved icons is getting the hose.  Mega Man 8 was a wonder to behold.  It had fluid animation and popping bright beautiful colors that brought to life an adorable anime-esque universe for the original blue bomber to call home.  Not to mention anime cut scenes to boot.  Travesty?  I would not go that far, but I imagine a lot of people are going to have a hard time playing a *new* game that looks like its been made from recycled 8 bit sprites.  I'm sure the old guard will love it, the old guard that is lucky enough to have a Wii that is.  Truth is this is not the way to bring back an old school favorite.  Come on Capcom give us something better.  Give us something that improves upon the style found in Mega Man 8 and make it pop in full 1080p.

I don't think I've been this stressed and overwhelmed in a long time. But to be completely honest that is one amazingly good thing, necause the reason I'm overworked is because I have so much going on right for the comic. First we've got a show in Lubbock, TX on August 9th( more details as they're available), our first book is going out for print soon, and we just keep seeing more growth on the site.  It's an awesome time here guys, and thanks to everyone who's sticking around :)
